I know there's a thread somewhere on PH levels in products and order to apply but i did a search and it didnt come up. Can it be made into a sticky please??
Im trying to find out if i should apply IS Clinicals Hydracool after or before i use Avene Eluage cream. If its after the avene, should i apply a moisturiser over the hydrocool? seeing as its a HA product.
Can anyone help...thanks |

Classically speaking you should apply the Avene first; wait half an hour for the retinaldehyde to absorb and convert into retinoic acid (Retin A) and then apply your other products.
It's not just a question of acidity here - it's a matter of retinoids absorbing/converting without interference. |
